20 min. 3.5 mi. Total: 515.8 From Rivendell: 53.1 mi. Cold and windy. Camped.

Have been lapsing on the biking lately. Still losing a little bit of weight - 3 pounds in the last month or so - mostly because I'm still watching how much I'm eating. I probably won't really be back in the habit until after I return from Japan, but after walking all sorts of places every day ... well, I damn well ought to be in the habit of exercise after that. :)

Just curious what type of bike are you using? My Dr. wants me to start riding a stationary bike and I have no idea what to get.

Mundee

I have a cheap-ass Stamina recumbent bike (http://www.amazon.com/Stamina-15-4600A-Magnetic-Resistance-Recumbent/dp/B000AMUFYY/ref=sr_1_1/103-5589267-4885456?ie=UTF8&s=sporting-goods&qid=1187047092&sr=1-1), because regular bikes make my butt hurt, no matter what level of fitness I'm at - the seats hit my pelvis on juuuust the wrong points and bruise. Stamina puts out some decent cheap bikes - the electronic meter thingy on mine died, but I can replace it for $20, to adjust it for a different height would require some effort, and so on - if you do a search on Amazon.com.
